Her love of fashion began as a young girl. She would scrutinize fashion magazines and sketch and made her first designs at the age of 11.
She began her career in 1998 working for companies in the UAE and Saudi Arabia as a brand manager and fashion buyer including Christian Lacroix, Emanuel Ungaro, Valentino and John Galliano. Effa believes that fashion should bring out the femininity and glamor in a woman. Her designs are cut in a way which aim to flatter any woman regardless of size or shape.
